Chapter 1157: A Prophecy Comes True
You don’t know until you check, and you’ll be shocked when you do.
At first, we only found some clues, but the more we investigated, the more we found. Small favors and connections were nothing.
According to Minister Zhan, when they further investigated the Min family in early March, they found that the kang in the house was broken and full of money was hidden inside.
The piles and piles of great unity contain enough to contain four hundred and eighty thousand and one hundred thousand!
At that time, the average annual salary of employees across the country was about 535 yuan, and 480,000 yuan was equivalent to the income of an ordinary employee for 900 years!
Just thinking about the scene of the raid is enough to tell you how shocking it was.
Lu Miao was shocked when she heard this, but after thinking about it carefully, she asked again:
"So where is the situation now? The head of the Min family has been detained, but what about Comrade Min? Where is he now?"
Minister Zhan said:
"Min Hongquan definitely can't escape. As for his wife and daughter, it is said that they packed up their things and hid away from the limelight after he was taken away."
As early as after Min's father was taken away, Min's mother was afraid of implicating herself and her daughter, so she drew a clear line with Min's father early on.
Now he is hiding with Min Qiaoqiao at his mother's hometown.
How does the saying go?
What he said came true.
Previously, when Min Qiaoqiao was wasting things at the vegetable market on East Chang'an Street, an aunt passing by said this.
They said she didn't know how precious food and daily necessities were, and that she would suffer from hunger sooner or later.
Looking back now, isn’t that the case?
All the family property was seized, and Min Qiaoqiao's status plummeted. She could no longer live a lavish life like before, and secondly, she was a girl.
In this society, especially in rural areas, the situation of favoring boys over girls is even more terrible than you can imagine.
Min Qiaoqiao's personality cannot be changed overnight.
Without the support of family background and wealth, it means that others will have no benefit to gain while taking the high risk of being "punished" as a result.
She couldn't carry anything, and it was hard to say whether her in-laws would truly accept her, let alone how they would get along with her and tolerate her over a long period of time...
And what about Min's father?
He probably still wouldn't dare to believe that Lu Miao, the dodder he looked down upon, actually strangled him to death in the end.
He was strangled to the point where there was no chance of recovery!
But then again, this anti-corruption incident was completely unexpected for Lu Miao.
Wasn't it because Father Min came to provoke her and threatened her children that she contacted the Supervisory Group at that time?
The world is like a huge makeshift troupe.
Sometimes the important thing is to not seek death and you won’t die.
After talking about everything, Minister Zhan pointed out Lu Miao meaningfully, asking her to keep working, saying that after this matter was completely settled, there would probably be other awards waiting for her from the organization.
Lu Miao accepted the advice humbly and responded calmly.
When she came out of Minister Zhan's office, she had new doubts in her mind.
If the information given by Minister Zhan is true, the Min family has fallen, then the person who drove away from her a few days ago is most likely not related to the Min family.
But if that is really the case, then who could the other party be?
Lu Miao's head was full of question marks.
Just as she was struggling with her doubts, things soon took a new turn.
It was lunch time.
Lu Miao leaned against the window of the office suite with his shoulders folded, staring absentmindedly at the "tick-tick" rain outside with a frown.
Just when I was feeling upset, someone knocked on the office door.
Yu Hong was sent out on an errand by her, and the person who came to deliver the message was Comrade Wang Ming from the first floor:
"Minister Lu, Director Chu from the Foreign Trade Department wants to visit you. He's waiting downstairs. Do you want to see him?"
Director Chu from the Foreign Trade Department?
Lu Miao couldn't remember who this person was for a moment.
I originally wanted to ask if the other party mentioned why they came.
But when I think about it carefully, the things happening right now are basically the same, and they all have something to do with the "Ministry of Foreign Trade".
Lu Miao's eyes flickered darkly. He paused for a moment and suppressed his original words. He walked to the desk outside and sat down.
"I have some free time now, please ask him to come over."
"OK."
The office door was knocked again soon. Lu Miao glanced sideways, then looked away and continued to look through the documents.
"Come in."
A faint female voice came into his ears through the door. Although there was no big emotional fluctuation, Director Chu of the Foreign Trade Department couldn't help but break into a cold sweat.
Pressing the door handle and pushing the door open, Director Chu smiled apologetically and said:
"Hello, Minister Lu."
Generally, Lu Miao would not receive anyone who did not give a prior notice or explain the purpose of their visit.
Although this was an exception and the other party was of the same level, she kept her head down and looked through the documents. She neither stood up to greet him nor offered to make him tea.
In one sentence:
"Hello, please sit down."
Her attitude was not warm, nor did she have the slightest intention of flirting.
At first glance, it looked as if he knew something and was trying to make his position clear.
The more unconventional her actions are, the more intimidating she becomes.
Director Chu saw this and said "Ah" dryly.
After looking around, he picked up a chair and sat down properly half a meter away from Lu Miao's desk.
Lu Miao was just about to say a few polite words and ask him what was the matter.
Before she could even say it, she couldn't help but feel a little suspicious when she saw him trying to beg for peace despite his gray hair.
Director Chu met her gaze and said hesitantly:
"Well... Minister Lu, I came here today to apologize to you."
apologize?
Lu Miao raised his eyebrows in confusion.
Director Chu continued tactfully:
"Last Saturday, a black car repeatedly cut you off. Do you still remember this?"
Lu Miao paused, closed the folder and looked at Director Chu seriously:
"Does this matter have anything to do with you?"
If it has nothing to do with it, then why bother saying "apology"?
And then again, it wasn't just a simple overtaking.
Not to mention cutting in, he also cut in line several times, intentionally trying to drive them onto the curb.
Nothing happened now, but if something had happened, she wouldn't be sitting here now.
"Minister Lu, it's embarrassing to say this, but I won't hide it from you now that things have developed to this point. This matter is indeed related to me... My son and Comrade Xiao Min were classmates at the same school. Because of some things, he developed a wrong prejudice against you, which is why he did such a reckless and reckless thing..."
Director Chu's Adam's apple rolled, his face was bitter, and his smile was uglier than crying.
"Oh...I see."
Lu Miao let out a long "Oh" and nodded, his brain working rapidly to analyze the situation.
Director Chu looked at her expression and thought that there was still room for improvement, so he continued:
"Before coming here today, I had already conducted strict ideological education on him and arranged for him to reflect at home...Forgive my shamelessness, but if possible, Minister Lu, please don't bother with this young man..."
